Undergraduate / University of Richmond supplement - Outside the comfort zone [4]

you could put "and I wasn't any better at the sports then they were." or "and I worked just as hard at the sports as they did" Either would sound good.

some more things you might want to change are (some more things I caught):
"know Tameem, who I then called my best friend." Change is to "who, at the time, I called my best friend."

"had to say "Goodbye" to each" I would take goodbye out of quotes

"Only this time I felt the desire to cry, but I didn't. I knew that it was because I finally was alone." Maybe rewrite it to say "This time I had the desire to cry because I finally felt I was alone."

"People seemed very pleasant and welcoming. But teenagers were not." Maybe change to "The people there were very pleasant and welcoming, but the teenagers were not." Might want to change people to adults,

In your essay you may want to state the fact as to when you left your comfort zone... it's only a suggestion, you mentioned that you were leaving your comfort zone again but you never mentioned that you left it in the first place, let alone a second time.

Hope this helps a bit more

This is a great essay.
There are some mistakes that I caught, but you may want them to be that way:
"I knew that it was because I finally was alone..." Either put because finally I was alone, or I was finally alone.
"I joined the tennis, wrestling, and soccer teams because..." Maybe Add Teams
"...best way to reach them, and I wasn't better in any work more than sports." This doesn't seem right to me

"or America. So we do not have" Take out "So"

Essays / Thesis statement for an argumentative essay about music [8]

I have an English essay, I chose two books and my two books are:
This is your brain on music, and The world in six songs
I would like to do an argumentative essay. I have to write about a "thread" that runs through the books, and it is Music.

These are some of my points
Music has become a universal language in our world,
people get emotionally attached to music,
Music communicates emotion and ideas,
it is exploited,
anyone is able to create it,
and is a way of learning.

My thesis is developing along the lines of:
Music has become a fundamental part of the world and daily lives

I know my thesis is weak, what can I do to make it stronger/better?
